Therefore, I Am is about the representation of identity in art, including self-portraiture, constructed personas, and alter egos. Therefore, I Am invites artists from all walks of life to express their individual identity in art. By expressing yourself, you join with humanity writ large, and with your fellow artists on the planet. This is the most beautiful of all self-evident truths. Our highly qualified juror is eager to experience artworks in all mediums demonstrating exuberant individuality. The amazing diversity of art about personal, tribal, sexual, regional, and cultural identities points the way toward a future when all individuals will be truly valued. Hybrid identities of all kinds are a central theme of contemporary art, an incubator for a new global consciousness, free from the prejudices of the past.
